You are totally correct sir. Plus you have something important which is called humour and there is a lot of colour in your posting. You are always right in the centre of the bullseye

"WE DO NOT NEED GRETA THORNBURG YELLING AT US!"
Thousands of Canadians rally against Greta thunberg.
EDMONTON, Alberta (Reuters) - Teenage climate activist Greta Thunberg's planned march in Canada's energy heartland of Alberta will face a counter-rally by a convoy of 4,500 oil and gas workers on Friday.
The truck convoy organised by pro-oil group United We Roll left the city of Red Deer on Friday morning, bound for Edmonton where the organisers plan to protest against outside interference.
It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

Australia is burning. I don't want to seem like an alarmist but it seems pretty unprecedented and widespread. Makes California look like a barbecue in comparison. @Andre would know more.
if you want to help, some info here - https://www.theguardian.com/australi...Essa4QE2BQSr-Y
australia has spent billions planning to extend the high speed train rail system, strangely the fire locations around the coast are very similar to where the construction will take place. they could be either burning the people out, so they can take over the land needed cheaply or herding people towards cities. these fires could have easily been stopped if back burning had been done much earlier to prevent the spread if fires started, as well as using a form of cloud seeding technology, needing very little cloud at all to create rain. the fact that the technology is there and not being used is criminal

California has stopped doing controlled burns which is causing their fires to be bigger, hotter, and more uncontrollable. Also the state receives federal funding for the constant "state of emergency" that are declared due to the fires.
But don't take my word for it, just look at any other state (especially the red ones) and tell me when they last had giant fires.....not like they lack for forests either.

Yeah its the East coast mate from the middle of New South Wales up to Queeensland is worse some have joined up and totally out of control flames hunderds of feet high in spots. Firemen report that they create their own wether patterns around the fires drawing air into them from all directions. We have some smaller fires around here and when you view them all on a map, it looks like hell on earth. Safe here in Victoria atm as we have south winds and we are south of the major fires but when it blows northerly we are in smoke from 500 kilometers away so its massive. It all makes the one burning in the Amazon look small too in size we are millions of acres gone . Too dry here,not a good rainfall in winter,the weather patterns have changed due to stripping forests back into farming lands no trees so it rains elsewhere.Is from the Elnino pattern too,warm ocean currents reversing down the East coast apparently keeping some of low pressure systems slightly further south and offshore more so we just get grazed by the top of them here in the south now. We had 43 Celsius the other day here just one day, thats about 113 Fahrenheit and broke records for some places, but no major fires thank God.We have our driest months ahead in JAn and Feb so who knows what it'll bring,another problem here are the amount of Eucalyptus trees inland and tea trees around the coasts, they have volatile oil in them both so just explode into flames.
